Oh look the rich neighborhoods have the least crime...
Hey, I live in the most expensive neighborhood in my municipality! What a shock that it's got the lowest crime.
What, then, are the advantages of diversity that not only compensate for
agonizing conflicts but justify considering it America’s “greatest strength?” If
readers cannot immediately think of any besides ethnic restaurants, they are not
alone. A 2007 study by the University of Minnesota found that Americans claim
to be positive and even optimistic about the word “diversity” but are unable to
explain its value or give examples of its benefits. The researchers found that
even people who work in the field of race relations stumble when asked to list its
benefits.
can't give examples of benefits. surprise!
Sorry my bad
The push for diversity can lead to absurd results. Bone marrow donations
almost never work unless donor and recipient are the same race, so non-white
patients suffer because almost all the people who register as donors are white. In
2008, the National Marrow Donor Program announced that all marrow registries
would be required to meet quotas for minority donors. Officials at St. Luke’s
Mountain States Tumor Institute in Boise, Idaho said they would have to shut
down their donor registry because the demographics of the region made it
impossible to find more than a handful of non-white donors.

Contact often has the effect of hardening hostilities, not dissolving barriers.
This effect is common in politics. When Jesse Jackson was running for the
presidential nomination of the Democratic Party, his percentage of the white vote
was consistently highest in those states with the fewest blacks. Whites with the
most actual contact with blacks were least likely to vote for him. The same was
true in 2008 during Barack Obama’s Democratic primary campaigns. He won
the highest percentages of the white vote in states such as Iowa, which has few
blacks, and the lowest percentages in states with large black populations.
Bernard N. Grofman of the University of California, Irvine has found a reliable
political correlation: As the number of blacks rises, more whites vote
Republican187—and the less likely they are to vote for black candidates.

Interesting stats about the relationship between race and low-income housing.
